Land UseMongolians use the steppes for the Nomadic lifestyle - Matt StarkAlso, if goat herders keep on grazing without replanting grass, there won't be any grass to graze. Therefore, the goat and sheep in Mongolia would die out - Matt Stark

Farming and raising animals to produce supplies (Goat-meat) can damage the grounds as the animals need food to survive, goats especially can destroy quite a lot of grass lands as they pull out the roots of the grass and the grass can't grow back unless planted manually.Jacob ChengNinja mining is extremely bad for the environment as it not other destroys the land, it destroys all environment which can never grow back unless soil is covered back and plants and trees are planted manuallyJacob Cheng Although the steppes are large and open, they are not empty; much of this area is grazed by livestock owned by nomadic herders. With a population of 30 million sheep, goats, cows and camels overgrazing threatens the natural environment in many areas.Aaron TsengOnly 1% of the land in Mongolia is cultivated with crops, amounting to 1,322,000 hectares (3,266,000 acres)Aaron TsengResources to build the homes leaving the land with less resources - Miles GormanThe home doors have to face north due to the cold winds(climate) - Miles GormanClimateResources DegradationAgriculture and herding leaves the ground compacted, dry and with less nutrients - land degradation

Mining makes the ground less rich and the ground is left altered from the landscape's natural form

Shayne TobiasClimatethe climates in Mongolia are harsh with sunny days and cold winters with the lack of rain the lands can't replenish to their natural state. - Conor TselepisWill RamsayThe Mountain ranges around Mongolia are well respected since they provide the people a lot of different values. Some of these values come under Economical values, Traditional values and Agricultural values.The herding of animals especially goats destroys the land. goats eat grass including the roots. Over time this inconvenience kills off a patch of grass which therefore can not be used. This could be an unfortunate outcome. If the herd can not get enough food it could result in death.However goats canprovide substantialamounts of meatand milkHerdingCarlos HurstReligious festivals and festivals in general are not all that goo for the, for example if they were to have a fire they burn the grass around it.Will RamsayReligious values impact heavily on the landscape of Mongolia. The people of Mongolia celebrate festivals which may involve having to ruin or kill some crops or plants. They place Ovoos on top of mountains, which point up to the skies to their gods.
